Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,
while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

This Full Moon is sure to affect each of us since it occurs close to Valentine’s Day and within hours of the Venus–Mars conjunction. Astrologically, Venus and Mars are considered the consummate cosmic lovers and, it is these two planets that are closely analyzed by Astrologers for intimacy and love within partnerships. When these planets line up harmoniously, we find ourselves greatly attracted to another, with the likelihood of falling deeply in love.
This month’s Full Moon falls in the fiery sign of Leo and is ruled by the Sun — both are associated with matters of the heart. Leo is the sign of the proud and powerful lion — generous, gregarious, creative, and fun-loving. Most importantly, however, Leos thrive on romance and need to be appreciated and loved by others. Considered a loyal sign, Leos can stray if the flame of romance and love dim.
Occurring with the Venus–Mars conjunction, this Full Moon is sure to ignite a few relationship dynamics in each of our lives. Leo is asking us to explore the idea of romance and how we can create more of it, even if we are single. Because Mars and Venus are in the sign signifying security, maturity, and time — Capricorn — we may find ourselves longing for it all! We want Leo’s ceaseless desire for romance and the support of a responsible mate who is willing to commit to what it takes to be in a long-term mature relationship. Whether you wish to begin a new partnership or transform a current one, you’ll want to engage with the energies of this potent Full Moon.
Physically, Leo is the sign that rules the heart, and most lions are sensitive, with tender hearts that need personal nurturing. If ignored, their heart may seek their attention by developing a physical condition. When balanced and healthy, the lion is a strong confident leader, courageous, and regal.
During this month’s Full Moon, you can intend your goals by contemplating and integrating these powerful feminine and leonine qualities within your life. For example, you may wish to creatively actualize or cultivate stronger leadership skills, romance and partnerships, or the healing of heart wounds.
